Finite-space dynamical systems
This question is quite open-ended, but I will formulate several sub-questions that I'll try to make precise. It is about finite-state dynamical system: start with a finite set $X$, with say $n$ ...

In how many steps a random walk visits all the elements of a finite group, with a probability 1/2?
This question is a variation of the return to the origin problem.
Let $G$ be the finite group $\mathbb{Z}/n \times \mathbb{Z}/n$ and let the random transformation $T: G \to G$ such that $T(a,b) = (...

"strongly mixing" action on dimers?
In Local Statistics of Lattice Dimers we study a nice familiar object, domino tilings in the plane extending out to infinity.
His paper is going to discuss the frequency of various "motifs" in ...
